<p><b><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:windowtext'>SIOUX TOMAHAWK </span></b><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial; color:windowtext'>Circa 1890-1910 pewter cast head pipe tomahawk such as that attributed to the Sisseton Sioux in Peterson’s <i>American Indian Tomahawks</i>. The ¼" thick flat blade is inlaid with slate and pierced in a tulip design. The eye is oval with a rectangular outer perimeter. The 22" haft is crafted from hard wood stained flat board and studded with 91 brass tacks, one missing. Tobacco residue from period use present. Nice even patina to wood and metal; overall a very nice example.</span></p>
